Re: Best jumps horse ever?
We will never see a horse like him in my life time, I think his best race was his Irish Grand National when giving 28lbs.
That season he ran from 2m the Tingle Creek to 3m5 Irish, in those days u had to run in h'caps because there wasn't group races so the horses had harder races, if he was around now he would just run in group1's and have a easy time of it mopping them up.
My fav was a horse called Twin Oaks, if only he hadn't got seriously injured as a youngster.
We showing our age Gray.
